Definitions Requiring Clarification
 

Several key terms lack operational definitions, making consistent implementation difficult.

Clarification is requested regarding:

  • "Regularly"
  • "Minimal ongoing professional intervention"
  • "Optimal community integration"
  • Face-to-face review requirements every 90 days
  • Whether those reviews require full interdisciplinary team meetings
  • Interpretation of references to "provider," "team," and "agency"
  • Whether DBHDS licensed residential settings or Clubhouses qualify as office locations for service limitations.
  • Whether Clubhouse services remain permissible if Psychosocial Rehabilitation is eliminated.
